Wine Details
A lovely entry on the nose, featuring a sumptuous fruit profile of strawberries and raspberries backed by chocolate. Plenty of depth and dimension already, and what you get on the nose is what follows on the palate - a juicy, approachable strawberry and raspberry core with a hint of chocolate. Soft-textured and eminently quaffable, this is a fantastic food wine and everyday drinker.

Our red blends from Lodi have always been perennial best-sellers and customer favorites. Lot 560 is sure to be a continuation of that tradition.
With Lodi's combination of Delta breezes, huge diurnal swing, and sandy/granitic alluvials washed down from the Sierra Nevada mountains, the region has been home to grape growing since the mid 1800s and continues to produce terrific wine to this day. While Zin continues to be the most planted grape, a number of Bordelaise varietals can also be found, and today's red blend of 55% Malbec and 45% Cabernet is a fine showcase of the diversity and quality that Lodi has to offer.
Looking for an all-purpose, "always keep a case within easy reach" wine to serve with any meal or pour generously on a Tuesday just because you feel like it? This is a no brainer.

Great Everyday Wine
Really great good wine at a very affordable price. Goes well with a variety of foods. We enjoyed so much ended up buying about 4 total cases. Sad to see it is out of stock. Really enjoyed it and still enjoying it.

Great value; nice balance
In France they'd call the 560 a "vin de soif." Home from work? Pour a glass and say, "Ahh." It's precisely the sort of medium-bodied red they serve at the bar of my club in London.

Good "Sipper"
This is a nice wine with food, but also a really good companion to sip with "OK, go read your book."
